Ecclesiastes 5
1 Guard (foot your *Q(K)*) when you will go to [the] house of God and draw near to listen more than giving the fools a sacrifice for not they [are] knowing to do evil.
Ne èle gegem ɖe gbedoxɔ me la, ke wò towo ɖi eye nàmia wò nu! Mèganye bometsila si menyana gɔ̃ hã be enye nu vɔ̃ be nàɖe adzɔgbe na Mawu tamemabumabutɔe o,
2 May not you be hasty on mouth your and heart your may not it hasten to bring forth a matter before God for God [is] in the heavens and you [are] on the earth there-fore let them be words your few.
Wò nu megatsɔ blablabla o, eye wò dzi megatsɔ ne wòaƒo nu le Mawu ŋkume o, elabena Mawu le dziƒo ke, le esime wò ya nèle anyigba dzi le afii eya ta mègaƒo nu blablabla o.
3 For it comes the dream with abundance of business and [the] voice a fool with a multitude of words.
Abe ale si hloloetsotso fũu akpa nana wokua drɔ̃e vɔ̃wo ene la, nenema kee bometsitsi nana woƒoa nukpoloe.
4 When you will vow a vow to God may not you delay to pay it for there not [is] pleasure in fools [that] which you will vow pay.
Eya ta ne èɖe adzɔgbe na Mawu be yeawɔ nane la, mègahe nua wɔwɔ ɖe megbe o, elabena Mawu mekpɔa dzidzɔ le bometsilawo ŋu o. Wɔ wò adzɔgbeɖeɖe dzi nɛ.
5 [is] good That not you will vow (more than what you will vow *L(abh)*) and not you will pay.
Ne èzi kpi, mèdo ŋugbe be yeawɔ nane o la, enyo sãa wu be nàdo ŋugbe be yeawɔ nane eye nàgbe ewɔwɔ.
6 May not you permit mouth your to cause to sin flesh your and may not you say before the messenger that [was] inadvertence it why? will he be angry God towards voice your and he will destroy [the] work of hands your.
Mègana wò nu nakplɔ wò de nu vɔ̃ me o eye mègagblɔ na dɔtsɔla si le gbedoxɔ me be, “Vodadae nye nye adzɔgbeɖeɖe” o. Nu ka ta Mawu ado dɔmedzoe le nya si nègblɔ ta eye wòagblẽ nu si nèwɔ kple asi?
7 For in abundance of dreams and futilities and words many for God fear.
Gɔmesese mele drɔ̃ekuku geɖewo kple nya sɔgbɔwo me o eya ta nɔ anyi le Mawuvɔvɔ̃ me.
8 If oppression of a poor person and robbery of justice and righteousness you will see in the province do not be astonished on the matter for a high [one] over a high [one] [is] watching and high [ones] over them.
Ne èkpɔ wole ame dahe aɖe tem ɖe to eye womedrɔ̃ ʋɔnu dzɔdzɔe nɛ o le teƒe aɖe le anyigba blibo la dzi la, mègana wòawɔ nuku na wò o elabena amegã ɖe sia ɖe le tatɔ aɖe te eye ame bubuwo gale tatɔawo hã tame.
9 And [the] profit of a land [is] in everything (it *Q(K)*) a king to a field he has been served.
Fia la le ame siawo katã tame. Oo, ɖe woakpɔ fia aɖe wòatsɔ eɖokui aɖo anyi ɖe dukɔa ƒe nyonyo ta hafi. Eya koe ate ŋu ahe ɖoɖo ade tɔtɔ sia me.
10 [one who] loves Silver not he will be satisfied silver and whoever [is] loving wealth not income also this [is] futility.
Ame si lɔ̃a ga la, makpɔ ga wòasɔ gbɔ nɛ, adze eŋu gbeɖe o. Enye bometsitsi be ame nabu be kesinɔnuwoe naa dzidzɔkpɔkpɔ ame!
11 When increases the good they increase [those who] consume it and what? profit [belongs] to owner its that except ([the] sight of *Q(K)*) eyes his.
Ale si nèkpɔ ga wòsɔ gbɔe la, nenema tututue wò gaŋudɔwɔwɔ hã anɔ; ekema nu nyui kae le gakpɔkpɔ ŋu? Ɖewohĩ nu nyui si le gakpɔkpɔ ŋu koe nye nàkpɔ ga la wòaƒu du ato wò asibidɛwo dome adzo le gbɔwò!
12 [is] sweet [the] sleep of The laborer whether a little and or [surely] much he will eat and the plenty of the rich [person] not it [is] permitting him to sleep.
Ame dahe si wɔa dɔ sesĩe la, dɔa alɔ̃ nyuie ne eɖu nu sue aɖe alo ne eɖu nu fũu, ke kesinɔtɔwo ya tsia dzimaɖi eye womekpɔa alɔ̃ dɔna o.
13 There [is] an evil severe [which] I have seen under the sun wealth [was] being kept by owner its to harm his.
Mekpɔ nu vɔ̃ɖi gã aɖe le ɣea te: eyae nye kesinɔnu si woli kɔe da ɖi wòva zu nuveviwɔame na nutɔ
14 And it was lost the wealth that in a business of evil and he fathered a son and not [was] in hand his anything.
alo kesinɔnu si wobu to dzɔgbevɔ̃e me, ale be ne viŋutsu le amea si la, naneke matsi anyi na viŋutsu la o.
15 Just as he came out from [the] womb of mother his naked he will return to go when he came and anything not he will carry in toil his that he may take in hand his.
Ame si ɖoa ŋu ɖe dɔwɔna sia tɔgbi ŋu la, trɔna kaba yia ahedada me, afi si wòdze dɔa gɔme tsoe.
16 And also this [is] an evil severe like exactly as [that] which came so he will go and what? [is the] profit [belongs] to him that he will toil for the wind.
Abe ale si megblɔ do ŋgɔ ene la: Nya sia nye nya sesẽ aɖe, elabena amea ƒe dagbadagba sia katã va zua tofloko kple ayadɔwɔwɔ ko. Eƒe nuwo katã buna.
17 Also all days his in darkness he eats and he is vexed greatly and sickness his and anger.
Eƒe gome le eƒe agbemeŋkeke mamlɛawo katã me la zua viviti, dziɖeleameƒo, dadaƒu kple dɔmedzoedodo.
18 Here! [that] which I have seen I [to be] good [that] which [is] beautiful [is] to eat and to drink and to see good in all toil his - that someone will toil under the sun [the] number of [the] days of (life his *Q(k)*) which he has given to him God for that [is] portion his.
Ke nu ɖeka pɛ ya nyo, eyae nye wòaɖu nu nyuie, ano wain kɔŋkɔ gã ɖeka, ana eƒe ɖoƒe le agbe me nadze eŋu eye wòana dɔ sia dɔ si wòwɔna la nado dzidzɔ nɛ to ɣeyiɣi si me Mawu ana wòanɔ agbe la me.
19 Also every person whom he has given to him God wealth and riches and he has given power him to eat from it and to receive portion his and to rejoice in toil his this [is] a gift of God it.
Gawu la, ne Mawu na kesinɔnuwo kple nunɔamesiwo ame aɖe eye wòna amenuvevee be wòaɖui, axɔ nu si nye etɔ gome eye wòakpɔ dzidzɔ le eƒe dɔwɔwɔ me la, nunanae wònye tso Mawu gbɔ.
20 For not [surely] much he will remember [the] days of life his for God [is] keeping busy with [the] joy of heart his.
Ƒãa hafi wòbua eƒe agbemeŋkekewo ŋu. Mawu naa eƒe susu nɔa dzidzɔ si le eƒe dzi me la ŋu ɣeawo katã ɣi.
